Final Approach...


I am coming in for the final approach with SURVIVING OPERATION PIED PIPER.
 (formerly NOT A HOLIDAY)
SOPP is out for it's (hopefully) last round of critiques.



Joyce, Gina, Molly, Sam and Phyllis are about to be queried.  
I'm as nervous as Joyce and Gina were when they boarded their train to an unknown destination.


Cross your fingers for me as I begin the adventure of querying.  Let's hope my query letter is da bomb.


Is anyone else querying?  What are you doing while you are waiting?

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!

    Hope your query rocks!
    Just waiting to get my manuscript back from my publisher. I'm sure there will be revisions.

    Hi Sharon - all the very best ... I sure hope there are lots of positives, as I know you've worked long and hard on this ... it'll be great to have the book realised and up for release.

    Happy New Year to you too ... cheers Hilary

    Good for you!

    Not ready to query yet. I just hope to revise my latest novel in time for ABNA (Amazon.com Breakthrough Novel Contest).

    Hope your querying yields many good things!

    Good luck querying, Sharon! I know it's nerve-wracking, but my best advice is 1) whenever you get feedback from an agent, tweak your manuscript in response to it (I revised my ms throughout my entire query process, so that I could send out the best possible product with every new request) and 2) work on another project while you wait.

    I guess I'm kind of passively querying. Don't ask! :)
